Sarah Palin Talks About the Juvenile Media and the Double Standard (Video)
Tennessee Guerilla Women —
Sarah Palin's first day back at work in the Governor's office included an encounter with the Alaskan press. She talks about the steady stream of 'Sarah Palin is a Diva' gossip and the problematic media that spreads it. And she talks about the double standard. She looks happy to be back in Alaska where one is somewhat removed from mainland vultures. In spite of an apparent collaborative effort by Fox News and MSNBC to paint the woman as the trailer trash joke of the month, Sarah Palin remains the most popular Republican the party has. "Ninety-one percent (91%) of Republicans have a favorable view of Palin, including 65% who say their view is ...

Palin Blasts McCain Aides Gov. Sarah Palin “fired back Friday at the unnamed McCain campaign aides who have been maligning her in recent days, saying that their criticism was ‘cruel and it’s mean-spirited, it’s immature, it’s unprofessional, and those guys are jerks,’” the New York Times reports.“Ms. Palin fought back after the infighting had made its way up to Senator John McCain, who made it clear that that he was upset by the back and forth, and ordered his campaign workers to stop it, aides said. Some in the staff worried that questioning the qualifications of the woman Mr. McCain had chosen as his running mate was damaging his reputation.” ...
SarahCuda Calls McCain Aids Jerks

One of the things that drove the Dubya supporters, such as myself, nuts was the ways he barely defended himself and his policies. Obviously, one doesn’t want to spend much time when the attacks are personal, giving them credence, or, as the old saying goes “never argue with an idiot. They’ll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” But, in politics, one has to engage to some degree. And, it looks like Sarah Palin has decided that she will smack the vicious McCain aids in the face with a salmon

The irony is thick in this one
Rising Hegemon —
I, of course, am delighted they didn't win -- but I, for one, will be sad when they stop throwing the knives at each other: Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska fired back Friday at the unnamed McCain campaign aides who have been maligning her in recent days, saying that their criticism was “cruel and it’s mean-spirited, it’s immature, it’s unprofessional, and those guys are jerks.” Meanwhile, apparently they welcomed her back with leftover "baby shower" material. True, with that family you have to stock up -- especially now that Todd is astride his snow machine in silk boxers.

Reprisals, Recriminations
Jules Crittenden —
[image] « Swiss Heroism Reprisals, Recriminations [image] Have to admit I have not been paying a lot of attention to the reprisals and recriminations. McCain-Palin is so 2008. Moving forward, not much interested in the rearview. Fortunately others are doing the important work of determining who screwed who for future reference. Quick trip through the recent past to the near future, from McCainaan to Obamaland, starts with Boston Herald re Mitt : M itt Romney’s camp is firing back at reports his foot soldiers are behind a brutal smear campaign against Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin in a backdoor strategy to position the former Bay State governor for the 2012 ...
Palin laments 'jerks' and 'stinkers'
Political Animal —
PALIN LAMENTS 'JERKS' AND 'STINKERS'.... In the wake of the election, McCain campaign insiders have been fairly aggressive in blasting Sarah Palin, including anecdotes about her confusion about which countries were part of NAFTA and whether Africa is a continent. For the most part, Palin brushed off the criticism. Yesterday, however, upon her return to the governor's office, it appears Palin just couldn't help herself ...
Palin calls Republican campaign staffers "mean-spirited," "immature," "unprofessional," and "jerks"
AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth —
Finally, Sarah Palin got something right. She called the GOP operatives what they are: “So, no, I think that if there are allegations based on questions or comments that I made in debate prep about Nafta, and about the continent versus the country when we talk about Africa there, then those were taken out of context,” Ms. Palin said. “And that’s cruel and it’s mean-spirited, it’s immature, it’s unprofessional, and those guys are jerks, if they came away with it taking things out of context and then tried to spread something on national news. It is not ...

Palin And The Jerks
The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan —
Palin tells us there is no truth whatever in the massive clothing expenditure stories, and no truth in the stories being leaked by the McCain people about her temper tantrums, no truth to the RNC inventory story, no truth to the NAFTA story and on and on. We know about Palin's relationship with the truth from long experience. And there will surely be, over time, substantiation of all these charges - "silk boxer shorts"! "I'm pregnant!" - or not. Just know that while the Dish is not staffed by investigative reporters, we sure do keep an eye on what they find. But don't relent! This is not about some kind of vendetta against a human being. It is holding the ...
The GOP gaze at their navel; Oregon hopes for more
BlueOregon —
The exercise of "what happened?" following the massive GOP blood-letting on Election Day is not just an interesting thing to watch, but vastly important. While I'm a pretty hard-core progressive/liberal, I don't see how its in our national (or state) best interest to have such a weak Republican opposition. We need a healthy and strong debate on the large array of issues we face.
I suspect that our Republican brethren are still reeling from the losses. It's got to sting. And it's not like we can't understand what that feels like.
Hopefully that reeling will end soon and they'll get serious about the fundamental changes in their party. So far, there ...
